The issue of how to reliably identify students with developmental dyslexia in order that they may serve in research studies and receive appropriate intervention has been unresolved for decades. The primary issue is how to distinguish students who are likely to have dyslexia from the considerable number of students who are simply poor readers. The present study explores the feasibility of developing a valid method for selecting students with dyslexia to serve as subjects in research studies and to enroll in special intervention programs. After consulting 16 definitions of dyslexia, five common elements were identified, and operational criteria were developed for four of the elements. These criteria were applied to 70 school-identified students with dyslexia residing in eight states. The results were used to establish three categories of likelihood for dyslexia:  very likely ,  likely , and  not very likely . According to our revised discrepancy method, 51% of the students currently receiving services under the dyslexia label satisfied the dyslexia likelihood criteria of  very likely  or  likely.  The remaining 49% did not satisfy the dyslexia likelihood criteria (i.e., they were  not very likely  to have dyslexia). Most researchers would probably agree that the students identified by this revised discrepancy method do in fact have dyslexia (i.e., seriously low reading ability, average or better cognitive ability, and a standard score difference of 15 to 29 points [for  likely ] and 30 points or more [for  very likely ]).
